Im basing this on the developers meta history, which are all in the high 70s since 2009. Arctic Edge, Apocalypse, and RC. Also based on arcade racer Need for Spped Rivals which got a 75 on X1 and a 80 on PS4. Also the latest sims Forza 5 (80) and GT 6 (81).

Based on the developer, and recent arcade + sim metas, this game would be lucky to get a 80 at the most. Were looking at a mid-high 70's title.

That makes zero sense, I guess Uncharted reviews and last of us should have been lower, considering what JAx and daxter scored right? All great previews = good reviews.

Uncharted 1 in 2007 could have been estimated based on their previous work. Comparing Jak and Daxter to Last of Us makes no sense. You estimate Last of Us based on the Uncharted series. You base Uncharted 2 and 3 on their predesessor. Get it?

Previews are supposed to be positive. They can also be impartial and neutral. Reviews are where the critical aspects come in. Look. I took what the dev did in the last 4 years and also what other racers are pulling in. There is some ground for my estimation.The game is gorgeous but that won't save it if it doesn't have real substance.

Edit: It is ok to hype realistic metas. Don't let exclsuivity cloud your judgement. I personally hyped Titanfall in the high 80's because I knew lacking a campaign would hold it back. I was right because I didn't get blindly into the hype and logically predict based on the facts given. Just saying.
